Remember, O Lord, in David's favor
All the hardships he endured
How he swore, how he vowed:
"I won't give sleep to my eyes
I will not enter my house
Until I find a place for the Lord"

Behold we heard of it in Ephrathah
We found it in the field
Let us go to His dwelling place
Let us worship at His feet

Arise, O Lord, and go
To Your resting place
Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness
Arise, O Lord, and let
Your saints shout for joy
For the sake of David, Your servant

The Lord swore to David a sure oath
From which He won't turn back:
"One of your sons I'll set on your throne
If they keep My covenant
The testimonies I teach them
Their sons too shall sit on your throne"
The Lord has chosen Zion for His dwelling place
"Here I'll dwell for I've desired it
Abundantly I'll bless her, satisfy her poor
And I'll make her saints shout for joy"

There I'll make a horn to sprout for David
I've prepared a lamp for My anointed
His enemies I will clothe with shame
But on him, his crown will shine, shine
